Geeks R Us
A few weeks ago while browsing the Etsy forums, I found a "Geeks, Nerds, etc" post where it was just a place for any geek/nerd/dork/whatever-you-want-to-call-yourself could hang out. I jumped in and mentioned my "Uber Geeky Pin" which has 42 printed in binary. You already have a Douglas Adams reference but to have it written in 0s and 1s? Well, that's just l33t. ;)I had the pleasure of making the aquaintances of Whamodyne and NorthStarJewelry on the thread. They are some pretty cool geeks. Whamodyne ended up purchasing two pins from me, the "In Soviet Russia, Pin Reads You" pin and the Moo pin. Some pics Ray (aka Whamodyne) sent me:
and:
As Ray wrote me: This is my "guy purse" - my beat up, used, stained, torn, repaired but very loved old map bag. It's where I keep my sketchbook and inspiration notes and pens and a tape measure and my wallet and camera when I'm out hunting the next cool idea.
And Beth (NorthStarJewelry), was inspired by my 101010 pin and made herself a stamped pendant:(kinda hard to tell from the pic but at least you get to see one of my favorite ThinkGeek tshirts). Lastly, I want to do some promoting for their shops and show you my favorite items!
You can find this Lightbulb Stand at Ray's shop. And the following Celtic Knot pendant from Beth's shop.
You will find such neat treasures in their stores that you'll find it a hard time choosing just one thing :)

Cool stuff! My husband has a map bag like that! Map bags make it okay for a guy to carry a purse, no?
:)

They're great.. and it beats them asking you to carry their stuff in your purse :)
Love the geek stuff! That shirt is l33t!
p.s. Thanks for all the super-awesome comments lately. :) You rock.
